If he's scum, you've nailed newb scum.
If he's town, the scum would have kept him around anyway as a patsy for later in the game. Being a newb that sucks at Mafia, they'd just hurt themselves and waste a lynch when it really hurts you, in endgame.
Worst case scenario? Power role. But you know what, give me VanillaEmp or VanillaThok or VanillaPJ over any superpowered newbcake you can name.
I can recall some stats thread where town winning percentages triple when a particular VI was lynched early. I can't claim to be an ultra hardcore math graph making Mafia player, but if you're really really bad at a game of reason, I can't rely on you to help me win.
